Don't be so dramatic - I can think of many legitimate reasons why 3.5 should
render slower than MP7, and I'm not even a programmer. I don't claim it as a
bug or even a defficiency. If you like someone could post to beta-test, but
for all I know, 3.5's algorithms are legitimately slower by benefit of being
more accurate under more situations. I honestly think you're being
over-sensative. IT'S NOT A CRITICISM!

Alright - but I think you're being over-sensitive. Should I just report
"optics.pov" as the test file, or would you prefer it if I find a simpler
scene?
